468 - 470 MHz - UHF Reduced Blockage Vertex Mounted LHCP Feed - Type N Female

FPVCL-043-N

The FPVCL-043-N is a 401-476 MHz self-supporting UHF LHCP vertex mounted feed is designed for a 3.8m diameter reflector. The central blockage associated with this feed is substantially less than that of a conventional UHF prime focus feed. The feed mounts to the vertex region of the reflector and does not require struts or guy wires. The reduced blockage achieved by this unique feed design provides increased antenna gain and improved side lobe level performance. The integral monopod support provides a focal adjustment of ? 3? along the focal axis of the reflector to accommodate feed focusing. The input on the FPVCL-043-N feed is a type N female located at the base of the monopod support. Axial ratio is less than 1.0 dB. VSWR is 1.4:1. This model is weather sealed and designed to survive 125 mph (201-kmh) winds, 1.0-in (25mm) radial ice, -40?F to +140?F (-40? C to +60? C) temperatures and corrosive atmosphere as encountered in coastal regions and/or heavily industrialized areas.
